Expected pileup values at the HL-LHC
/ATLAS and CMS Collaborations
In this brief note the expected mean number of interactions and the length of the luminous region for the HL-LHC is discussed for an instantaneous luminosity of $5 \times 10^{34} /{\rm cm}^2/{\rm s}$. Its dependence on various parameters is discussed and an uncertainty is estimated. [...] CMS-NOTE-2013-003; CERN-CMS-NOTE-2013-003.-

Simulation Studies of the Radiation Environment in the CMS Detector for pp Collisions at the LHC
/ Bhat, Pushpalatha (Fermilab) ; Mokhov, Nikolai (Fermilab) ; Singh, A. P ; Bala, Suman (Panjab U.)
Detailed knowledge of the radiation environment in which the CMS detector has to operate at the Large Hadron Collider is vital to ensure safe operation of the detector and to maintain the desired performance quality. Therefore, we have carried out Monte Carlo simulation studies using MARS code to estimate particle fluxes and radiation dose in the CMS silicon pixel and strip trackers as well as in the surrounding detector subsystems from proton-proton collisions, beam-gas and beam halo interactions, and for some LHC beam accident scenarios.

CMS at the High-Energy Frontier. Contribution to the Update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics
/CMS Collaboration
We present a study of the physics potential of the upgraded CMS detector in Higgs physics, searches for new physics, top, and electroweak physics in three scenarios: the LHC (300 fb$^{-1}$ at 14 TeV), HL--LHC (3000 fb$^{-1}$ at 14 TeV), and HE--LHC (300 fb$^{-1}$ at 33 TeV). We also discuss the potential to reduce the PDF uncertainties, which at the moment the limiting systematics for many of these studies. [...] CMS-NOTE-2012-006; CERN-CMS-NOTE-2012-006.-
